Double My Trouble

We hadn't been here but a few months and a neighbor asked me if I would make his wife a double wedding ring for her birthday...I, being ignorant, said sure! I found the fabric in November, cut out and pieced in December, put it together in January, sent it off in Feb, but didn't get it back until end of May...her birthday was beginning of May. Anyway, whatever possessed me to think I could make such a difficult quilt - I didn't even know how to make one - but being during the holidays and not having a clue what I was doing and being on what seemed like such a short time schedule - I really should be questioning my judgement. I was never so sick of looking at fabric - it was my every waking moment on that quilt. I also realized, I WAY, WAY undercharged him. That said, I have to say, the quilt came out beautiful! I literally cried when he came to pick it up - my husband asked me if I could come up with some excuse that it got ruined or something. No, I don't have a double wedding ring on my bed...yet

Dover Quilt

Well, this is the quilt we did while in Dover. As I said before, I really didn't like the theme fabric, but I love the way the quilt came out. It is one of my most favorites and one that I have a lot of compliments on! It's actuall bigger than it looks here - I have it hanging across the bannister.
